FReeper Canteen ~ Sunday Chapel Thread ~ DON'T GET NUKED ~ July 11, 2010

DON'T GET NUKED


The Navy and Marine Corps rightly spend much of their time on chemical, biological and radiological training. As bombs and triggering devices become more mobile and terrorists become more sophisticated, it is important to prepare ourselves for disaster while hoping that it will be avoided.

Regarding chemical and biological warfare, it is especially difficult to believe that something so small and invisible can be so deadly and dangerous. Just a little toxin in the air . . . and the next thing you know you're doing the "funky chicken" on the ground. Bad attitudes can be like that, too! Invisible and deadly. So can negativity, apathy, lethargy, and passivity. You can't really see those invisible attitude-toxins. But they are deadly poison. Just one little taste . . . and destruction of the soul follows.

Prayer: Heavenly God and Protector of our lives ... Give us a zest for life. Protect us from all the poisons and toxins that threaten our soul and spirit. Help us to suit up with anticipation and excitement for all which life has to offer. Cause us to breathe in the fresh air of purity and righteousness. And, Lord, if there does come a time of destruction and war, protect us from any form of chemical, biological, or nuclear warfare. May common sense and peace prevail in this troubled world and bring us hope. Amen.

LT L. D. Bohannon, CHC, USNR

A little out of season, but since you gents are quoting it, here it is:

O Holy Night – Luciano Pavarotti

Tissues? Poor warning.

It should have been a “5-gallon bucket” alert.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*

A Blessed Lord's Day to you and your family as well. My Dad's hand is doing really well. I am amazed at the healing that is already taking place. I am sold on super glue for skin.

I was really surprised at the thinness of the skin on the back of his hands. And the finished "fix" doesn't look anything like the would I first saw. We saw an E, but you can see what it really was. He said no more hose coiling for him. LOL! I'm gonna have to think about a better method of storing.
